Tasty and easy to make

I followed the recipe exactly, but because I used salted ckichen stock, I left out the salt and it was perfect. I served it with Cooking Light’s Grilled Pork Tenderloin Roulade and I thought it complemented it very well. I will definitely make this recipe again.

Great side dish!

Must admit I used a wild rice and quinoa mix from Costco, but otherwise stayed true to the recipe (ok, a little white wine added toward the end). DELISH! Accompaniement to the soy orange salmon from CL, with fresh summer fruit on the side. Wonderful meal.

Really great!! I used dried parsley because I didn't have fresh. That was the only substitution I made. The recipe added a lot of interest to what can be a sort of blah grain. Will definitely make again.

The flavors combination is perfect with broiled or grilled fish, especially salmon with a soy-based marinade. I sub veg stock in lieu of chicken and scallions instead of chives. Result is less salty and subtly milder flavor. This is my go-to quinoa recipe and my wife loves it which is most important!
